        There is nothing inherent in that type of work that would serve to create these conditions, the reason we outsource this labor is easy, you gladly buy stuff made with slave work, corporations want the cheapest production, and these nations are more than happy to destroy their own populace, because shocker, they are just imperialist state capitalists in the case of China/North Korea.

        So, no, the fact that they need suicide safety nets is 100% a China issue.

          I didn’t say that it is inherent to that work, just pointing out that outsourcing to countries with those issues is merely delegating responsibility, just like how moving manufacturing to China and then shipping products back doesn’t mean the west cut down emissions when they’ve simply moved it somewhere else. I don’t gladly buy stuff made with slave work, I have no choice in the matter other than to not buy products (which is a choice I often take), because the two or three companies that control every industry get to decide where and how stuff is made.
